Lady bug, lady bug

I’m currently taking an online workshop that has weekly assignments. The assignments are completely non-pet related, but everything learn I can apply to the pet photography, so it will be a great workshop for me.

This weeks assignment required a flower. Everything else was our choice. As I wandered around the gardening section looking for possible candidates (I have a fabulous brown thumb) I was completely surprised to find out that they sold live lady bugs by the 100s. I figured every yard could use a supply of the little organic gardeners.

They certainly are not as responsive as dogs or even cats. In fact, they didn’t take any direction at all. They were thrilled to be out of their packaging and even more thrilled to take flight and fly away home.
